Jazz on the Beach

23 August 2026

In an era where technology is often crowned “king,” Justin is here to remind the world that music still lives and breathes through real instruments, live performance, and unfiltered human emotion.  

“My heart’s desire is to spread peace, love, positivity, and unity through my music and to be an inspiration to my generation,” declares 18-year-old vocal and multi-instrumental prodigy Justin-Lee. Justin represents a new generation of artistry rooted in timeless musicianship.  His highly anticipated release on September 17, 2025, with the RNB/POP single Toxic (Long for You), was written, arranged, and performed entirely by him with his follow up single Kiss & Tell released April 8, 2026.

It is no wonder that the South African born, LA based musician had prompted Quincy Jones to rave “This kid is something special” and Robert Glasper to exclaim “Justin is an older man in a boy’s body!! It’s so great to see somebody so young have such a vast love of ALL kinds of music!! He sounds amazing.” Jojo shared “I’ve decided I am the Tony Bennett to your Lady Gaga,” and Jimmy Jam says, “When the divine art has angels like this, music is alive and well.”

Justin started playing piano at the age of 5 and received an endorsement from Yamaha South Africa that same year. His first stage performance was with his dad, just two weeks after he started playing piano. At the age of 13, he started playing guitar as well as adding vocalist to his many talents.

As Justin-Lee continues to evolve, his journey is only just the beginning – each track a step forward, each performance a promise of more to come.
